Ground Zero: Then and Now
Posted by: | Comments
I was in New York yesterday and the bin Laden news prompted me to take my first walk around Ground Zero in perhaps a couple of years. I stopped at many of the locations I had photographed on 9/11 and took new pictures with my iPhone.
In the top photo, FDNY firefighters carry a body into the lobby of the Dow Jones Building at the World Financial Center, which was being used as a temporary morgue late on the 11th. Yesterday, it was shiny and clean again.
For the most part, the visit was a cathartic experience, and it was good to see so much progress at last, but some of the commercial advertising nearby was still hard to swallow. I understand the appeal of carrying on with business as usual, but this will always be a sacred place for me.
I will post some more photos in the coming days.
Happy New Year from Philadelphia

This is my 20th New Year’s Eve in Philadelphia and we started with a peek from a friend’s deck at the early fireworks over the Delaware. Another show is scheduled for midnight. Happy New Year!
